Doggy Day Care in Highland Park

“As a first-time dog daycare user, I was filled with worry, but Thea went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. I'm confident that it was a wonderful experience for my dog, Chester, as well. It's hard to put into words how touching the experience was. I am so grateful to Thea, and I have no doubt about her love for dogs. As long as she's available, I will continue to entrust her with Chester.”

“Kazuhiro and Akemi were fantastic with Bailey as usual. They sent multiple updates and photos all throughout the day. Bailey is given a lot of attention and love. Highly recommend them anytime!”

“Lauren and Lauren are wonderful with our puppy Ellie. Update us give a report at pick up and are very accommodating. We will be back for sure”

About: My wife, Jana, and I have been dog lovers our entire lives. Currently, we're proud parents to our wonderful pup, Lula. Lula is a 75lb Komondor-mix. Recently, we said goodbye to our other beloved senior dog, so we understand the unique needs and joys of older dogs. We'd love to open our home to another dog, if only temporarily, to bring some companionship to Lula and fill our hearts with double joy once again. Rest assured, your furry friend will be treated like family while you're away. We can't wait to welcome them into our home with open arms! Jana and I both work from home, ensuring that there's always someone around during the day to provide company and care for your pet. Occasionally, we may step out for a meal or activity in the evenings or on weekends, but your pet will never be left unattended for more than a few hours at a time. Our cozy home boasts a fenced backyard, providing a safe haven for your pet. We enjoy daily walks in our scenic and relaxing neighborhood, ensuring your dog gets plenty of fresh air and exercise if desired. Our dog Lula is e-collar trained, and is playful with other dogs & humans

“Pat took great care of my dog. She has a lot of experience and really cares about animals. This was my dog's first time with Pat and he seemed to have enjoyed himself (even though he was a little uneasy with an unfamiliar environment). I definitely recommend Pat to care for your fur babies.”

“Tyler took great care of our 9 month old puppy/dog Pepper. She loved playing with his dog in the big back yard and Tyler was thoughtful about which other dogs he let play with her as she is still a puppy. :-) Happy to have made this connection.”

“Tracy was so great with Wrigley! We’d highly recommend her.”

“Maureen Miller is a wonderful person who is compassionate and caring and has great empathy for the pets. She would be a perfect pet walker for your family”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, and have a good understanding of what makes each pet unique. I pride myself of understanding the individual needs of a pet and finding a way to give them 100% of my attention and care. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule, both in terms of walking availability as well as general pet needs. My own dog is spoiled rotten since she is in my care 24-7. My home is very safe for pets. We have a fenced in back yard and live in a very walkable neighborhood close to parks, and dog runs. When a pet stays with us they are not a guest but part of our family and are treated as such. I have a background caring for dogs that have a multitude of health concerns and require complex medical direction. Additionally we have had puppies as well as older dogs that have stayed with us and have designed the organization of our home to accomedate the needs of both age ranges.

“Great dog walker & dog sitter! Highly recommend! Alessandra, will always go above & beyond for your dogs to have the greatest walk! Will have her walk the dogs again!”

“We had a very positive meet and greet with Denis and Nikki and their children and Thunder, their dog, awhile back, immediately after which we booked our dog Bailey for an overnight stay that's still to come. But unexpectedly this week I needed daycare for Bailey and so I decided to book Denis and Nikki to see how things went for just a day's stay. I am very pleased to report that it seems to have gone very well. Bailey apparently had a calm and peaceful stay there and got along with everyone, enjoying the opportunity to wander around a nice yard (which she doesn't have at home). Denis and Nikki are very welcoming and responsive, and seem to really love dogs and enjoy looking after them. Their home is well prepared to host doggy guests, with a safety gate inside the front door and lots of places in the house for dogs to make themselves comfortable. I received pictures and a Rover report at the end of the day, listing walks and other notable things that took place, which was nice. I have never had that level of detail provided before with other sitters. I feel very confident about Bailey's upcoming overnight stay, and I'm sure we'll be booking with Denis and Nikki in the future. Thanks for taking good care of Bailey, D & N!”

“Highly recommend utilizing Jeremy’s services. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional and we will absolutely be utilizing Jeremy’s services in the future. 5 stars!”

“Diane and Wayne are fantastic dog sitters! They have watched our two dogs on numerous occasions. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs. We can always enjoy our vacation because we know our dogs are in safe hands! As a bonus they always send us picture of our dogs!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a teenager and loved the experience! I worked at an animal shelter and trained dogs with disabilities twice a week. I helped dogs who had behavioral issues become socialized to people and other animals. Overall, it helped me gain experience with a variety of dogs. I am able to provide overnights but can work with check ins as well. I’ve worked mostly with cats and dogs. During the weekdays, I work from 10-6 so I am able to walk doggies in the morning and evening. I love cuddles and playing with pets for fun 🤩 I make sure to clear my schedule when it comes to pet care days! I make sure to keep my full attention to the pets whenever I care for them. I stay on schedule of their meals, daily walks and make sure to keep any food/items out of reach. I also love playing with the pets and providing fun times!

“Lovely hosts for my girl. Caring, thoughtful, fun....recommend! highly!”

“Josh has watched several of our friends’ dogs while they were away. He’s had experience training his own pets and treating others’ pets as his own. Your pets are absolutely in good hands with him. He’ll come to your home and not only take the dog out, but he’ll stay and hangout and make sure the dog is happy and content before leaving. I couldn’t think of more caring person to look after your fur babies.”

“Highly recommend Susie Sweet n gentle lady you know your loved one is in good hand I felt at ease while I had my dog with her She was sending me pictures updating what they were doing too”

“Helene is a retired inner cith special education teacher who has demonstarted over the 30+ years that I have known her that she is a compassionate, caring and intelligent person, both with children and with animals. In fact, I hired Helene to be a teacher in my school because of those very characteristics.”

“Rachel is very kind person and loves dogs. Rachel is an experienced dog walker and anyone lucky enough to have Rachel walk their dog will be very satisfied with the care Rachel will provide to their dog”
